Here's why:
* United States: English is the official language of the United States, with a majority of the population speaking it as their primary language.
* Canada: While Canada is officially bilingual (English and French), English is the dominant language spoken by a majority of the population.
* Mexico: Spanish is the official language of Mexico. While English is widely spoken in tourist areas and business contexts, it is not the dominant language.
* Other North American countries: Most other countries in North America, such as Belize, Jamaica, and the Bahamas, have English as their official language.
While Spanish is widely spoken in North America, especially in Mexico and Central American countries, English remains the official language in the majority of countries in the region.
